Hehe that makes sense, but a small, obnoxious part of me is like.. where exactly do the hairs split 😂 Since that ship of theseus situation is kinda true with all manner of processing. like- putting a simple sound through a ridiculous effect chain, then sampling the tail etc. effects can already be so dramatically transformative, it's hard to know where the line is.
Maybe a more practical way to ask the question would be- is resampling for the purpose of producing derivative sounds in the spirit of the battle?
